Pregnancy can be hard on the body, Physically, you are changing shape - your ligaments are loosening, your pelvis is expanding, other areas are expanding, and you are forced to carry yourself differently to accommodate for the change in centre of gravity.  

There are hormones increasing and decreasing at different times, which can create emotional changes and stresses that aren’t usually there.  

Then, there is the fact that no matter whether you are a first time Mum, or already have children, your life is about to change for ever.  It is only natural for feelings of apprehension, fear, nervousness etc. to come up during this time.   You are so focussed on the child growing in you, and making all the necessary arrangement, you don’t allow any ‘Me’ time.  

‘Me’ time is so important during pregnancy, whether it is just time taken to have a massage to relieve physical discomfort, or to have a Kinesiology session to help with the emotional stresses.  

Even before becoming pregnant herself, Lisa has had a very special interest in pregnancy, and the treatment of the physical and emotional issues that arise, especially pelvis and lower back pain, and the stresses that arise during the pregnancy, and when thinking about the birthing process.

Regarding massage, Lisa performs Pregnancy Massage in the side lying position, with a body pillow to support your belly, hips and legs.  This position allows you to be the most comfortable, whilst having your whole body supported.  It also allows easy access to the muscles for the best massage treatment possible.    

These photos demonstrate the position used, in these photos Lisa is 6 months pregnant.
